Use a permanent red marker and give it the custom look.



Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

I have Coker Classic Redlines on the Blacray. P225 75 R 15 is the largest tire that would fit underneath without rubbing. There are times when these ocassionally will lightly rub the ground effects package.

I worked with a local tire store and had the tires shipped direct from Coker to them and they mounted and balenced them on a set of Luxor wire wheels that I purchased from them.

For the record the are BF Goodrich casings. I like the ride, look, and performance they deliver. Tuxblacray2008-11-20 17:18:28

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
I have the Indy 500 as well, and love them.
 
But here is a thought.   Mount the blackwalls out, and go the your local used car dealer and ask where they get their tire done.  There are companies that will fix whitewalls, make redlines or white walls etc.  They do a good job if you can find someone.  It's not just paint.  They buff the area of the tire where the line goes, and a compound goes on that becomes part of the tire, not just a coating.   You can scrub these with a brush and not take the color off the tire.
 
Very cool.
